Hi,
I am having trouble installing Fring on the latest Dutty Rom. Has anybody else experienced this problem?
I install the cab to either memory or storage and it still does the same thing... It just loads the splash screen up and hangs there?
I contacted fring about this problem and they replied with the following:
"Hello Colin,

We are aware of the issue and working to solve it in the near future.

I see alot of people on this forum using Fring and I was just wondering how they went around installing it?
Thanks,
Colin Jensen
Worked fine for me on Dutty's V3 - I installed it and ran it with wi-fi turned off and was surprised that it automatically turned wi-fi on to connect.
Same here
Yeah, I got the same problem on my phone. I have had Fring on my before but it was acting buggy so I uninstalled it and looked for the newer version of it and tried installing it but I install it and like you said the splash screen comes up and just hangs.
Did you ever get it to work? I see that this is an old thread.

I had the same problem on my phone when I installed for a brief period of time last week. I ended up uninstalling......
i have installed the cab on a number of ROMS, never had any issue..
official tilt 6.0 rom didn't work, q mobile 1.2 rom didn't work...official tilt 6.1 rom, @ least it actually opens now (no more error screen) but doesn't get past loading. 3 roms, still haven't been able to get it working over here.
yep, confirmed, same problem, multiple roms, multiple ways of installing, multiple connections when opening program, Fring is still just stuck on the splash screen that says "Fring is loading" I had it working at one point in my Kaiser's life but nothing now seems to revive it, been trying for months, there are no fixes that I have seen online. Any good alternatives?
No problem so far.....
been using it for over 1month now....
installing and uninstalling for more than 8times
i justgot my kaiser....thats why with all thecustomization....
am using a russian Wm6.1 rom
I have the same issue
I tried every known fix that can be googled... I also contacted Fring... no help. It seems to be a huge problem with the 6.1 Roms. Someone here should have a fix...
Nope, it's fring's job to get it right, not much we can do... and they unfortunately dont seem to care much about WM6.1 users given the number of reports they've had for weeks/months about the problem and their everlasting "we're gonna investigate it" answer.

I have just installed Fring today on PDACornerUltimate ROM v15, it works properly.
I was able to make a SIP call to Fringe Testcall as well as SkypeOut call.

Yep, they just released a new version that works.
Language settings
I've the same problem with Fring that I've with google map.
My PPC regional settings are set to China, since it's the olny way to display chinese caracters everywhere in the OS (notice the OS is in English).
But, fring's language (like google map) is choosen according to those settings... it's very annoying.
Does anybody if there is a way to disable this feature (registry hack...) ?
Thanks,
Fring on kaiser
i just installed fring on my kaiser im using duttys_wm6.1 hybrid v2 and dont have a problem with it. it loaded up properly and everything seems to be working. my only thought is maybe a high amount of cpu usage, (programs that are running from start-up?) that is slowing everything down and causing the app to hang of freeze. thats just my thought. im probably wrong. anytime i have an issue with any kind of app freezing of not starting up thats usually were i look first. i hope that this helps. if not im sorry and at least i tried.

Guys, I read this ROM has Skype built-in, is this correct? I am curious if you guys have problems with WIFI & Skype as described here, and if this ROM/Radio has improved it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=15707&highlight=skype
I have problems exactly as described in the link above, After a few seconds into the call, I would be disconnected from Skype. My Internet also “dies” (it still appears to be connected, but nothing will work)… only way to fix is to soft-reset.
This is a really bad drawback b/c a huge reason for getting the Blue Angel was to use VOIP via Skype! :x
btw, What version of Skype is included, and if a new version of Skype PPC is released, how would we go about upgrading it, since it is in the ROM?

The installer for Skype is in ROM, not the actual program. The actual program is in ram, just as if you downloaded it. Version is 1.1.0.7 and yes that is a 7.
Seems to work OK for me, over Wi-Fi I have used it over 12 hours at a time.
THANK you dah54 ... almost had 100 views with no replies. :shock:
That is very useful information - I don't see 1.1.0.7 on Skype's webpage http://skype.com/products/skype/pocketpc/ . Wonder what has changed since 1.1.0.6?
It's actually only in the EXTENDED ROM. Which means it is indeed a seperate program, with a cab installer.
You can grab it from the FTP, here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Operator/Imate/Default_SkypeForPocketPC.CAB
Thanks TheLastOne -- I wandered onto the 1.1.0.7 link earlier and thought maybe a simple Skype upgrade would solve my problems, but no dice.
Went full out and did the 1.40 upgrade with 1.12 radio, and have not had any disconnects yet! Will test it out more later tonight.
Problems fixed.
I can hardly believe it - Skype is working absolutely perfectly with this new ROM and Radio!
No more disconnects with Wi-fi and sound quality is a definite improvement (according to others). I will soon be getting some SkypeOut credits 8)
If anyone is on the pre-1.40 ROMs and having Skype issues, I strongly recommend you to give the upgrade a try. Heck, even those with wifi issues should try it... I know you're out there! -- I've seen quite a few of you with wifi issues while searching through the forums.
Hello,
I downloaded Fring off of their site, installed the file. Its on my 'desktop' now with an icon and says 'fring is currently offline'...
When I click it, i get a progress icon and then nothing. When I find it in Programs and open it, i get the same thing. I never get any login windows or anything. I am always successfully connected to wifi when I do this.
Is there something I am missing? Do I need to change any memory settings or anything? I am pretty much running my Wing with 'out of the box' settings.
Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.
chris
I just installed it and ran it with no proble ............. try going to fring.com on your device and download the .cab file from there and re-install it
tried that twice now... seems after the install, it starts up fring and i get the FRING IS LOADING screen but it goes no further. Is this app a memory hog or something? Or is it just buggy?

Last post is from someone who has your same issue on the Wing. I've got a Hermes (TyTN) and it doesn't start on that device either (splash screen pops, then program dies with no error messages, etc.)
Sounds like fring has known about this for awhile but no progress so far Fring support referred me to their blog, but nothing of use their, nor in the forums from what I've found so far:

Not that this helps you much, but Fring worked great first time on my Wing. But then it stopped connecting shortly thereafter, just like you described. But then I uninstalled/reinstalled Fring and it has been working since.
SOLVED
I just solved that problem.
The problem was the program VoipAudiosrv, an error with that program. Just uninstall fring AND voipaudiosrv, restart your phone, and reinstall fring. You will be asked to re install voip audio srv: do it. Now it should work.
Hi everyone I'm new with WM, before I had only Symbian. I have ATT Tilt which I've unlocked and updated to Kaiser firmware, with help of this forum. Before Skype worked perfect for me, I had WM6 pro, but now when I've upgraded to WM6.1 it wont work, during loading message appears: Failed to load file. I've tried to reinstall it for few times... no help. Maybe somebody knows any solution for that problem. Thanks.

Seriously, does ANYONE read anything around here before they jump into a new ROM? Would you jump into a pool BEFORE looking to see if any water was in it? How many threads have people already posted and said "NOT ALL APPLICATIONS ARE WORKING ON 6.1" Start reading, read some more, THEN post a relevant question.

Downgrade back to WM6? Though I think I read somewhere that once you upgrade, you can't go back. There was a thread where people were finding problems with their phones after they went back to 6 that going back to 6.1 again didn't solve.
I remember when Vista first came out and the reports of programs failing left, right and centre. That's one of the main reasons I'm not bothering to upgrade until the compatability issues are resolved...
Is there any alternative program, that is also works with Skype network? I know Fring, but it's not so good. Maybe there are others?
I have version 4.57 and my message box where I type is messed up. I can't see what I type. I've attached a picture for example. I tried different versions but all is still the same. Is it my ROM? I have udKs 8.0..Duttys ROM worked fine but I changed to udK...I even tried hard resetting but still the same problem...anyone has this problem?
nothing comes close to IM+ ..only Agile is #1 i'd say... and Slick messenger doesnt have mobile buddys for AIM...
thanks!
No replies eh? Shame because I have the exact same problem.

Well, if you DID hard reset and still have the same problem, then it must be your ROM. I don't have this kinda of issue so far.
BTW, 4.58 is released.
Nghiem, I tried 4.58 and I got the same results.
Anyway, I'm moving on to JiveTalk now.
It's the rom. Something with the OS is not meshing well with IM+. In my experience IM+ will only work with WM6.1 OS version 19170 and 19716 and older. There are also some hybrid roms that are based on 19716 where IM+ may work, but I personally have not tested them.
I currently use my own cleaned up version of 3.02 with 19170 OS and all my programs work great. Hope this helps.
I'm having this problem too... I've been using IM+ for quite a while with WM5 rom and it did ran smoothly without any problem. Just I upgraded to WM6.1 rom, I can't use IM+ anymore: everytime when I click on someone to open up the message box, the program just shuts down, I never can type any message to anyone
I hope there'll be a way to fix this problem soon coz' I like IM+ and don't wanna downgrade my machine!
try dutty's new 19700 build,works fine with that
The new version (currently in beta) might work better. Check their website to see if it's put up yet.
I'm using WM6 so far, so I haven't seen any problems, but those of you who are, can you turn on debugging/logging and send Shape Services the log files, if it creates some?
They're pretty good about helping, albeit they are sometimes a little slow to respond. I used IM+ on my Palm for quite a while and worked with them several times over bugs.

Hello again, I have this big problem with my Kaiser :
since I installed the last HTC 6.1 ROM update, my device randomly freezes for 10-20 seconds.
I also noticed that my devices sometimes slow down ...
Does anyone else have this problem ?
The solution : Downgrade to WM6 !
I think I've found where the problem is :
since I stopped using "Quick Menu", the Kaiser does not freeze anymore ...
That means this is another usefull application I will have to stop using with the HTC 6.1 ROM !!!
Sorry but I don't know what is Quick menu...

If you don't know it, that means you didn't install it on your Kaiser. So your freeze problems were not coming from this application. Sorry ...
The biggest bug i've been with wm6.1 : my kaiser soft reset alone all the time ! Maybe they're drunk when they're built this rom lol ! They should have write : THE MAGIC FUNNY WM6.1 RELEASE WITH GHOST TOUCH !
I disabled Weather tab and contacts tab with HTC home customizer. It seems to work well now. I will see if problem has really gone. Thank you for your help Dizzy. You gave a direction to my searchs
You're welcome ... But I use HTC home mainly for its contact and weather application ... So it's not a solution for me.
I noticed that orange france users had problems. Perhaps it is linked with our SIM CARD...
do you really need to post two threads on this?
I thought about using HTC's rom, but instead, i used dutty's lite rom, and built it up myself with what i wanted. Its a hell of a,lot faster, i wouldnt touch another oem htc rom ever again, they are full of rubbish, and slow as my old wizard
Finally I discovered that the problem didn't come from "Quick Menu", but from "HTC home" !!!!!
HTC home does slown down my Kaiser and is responsible for randoms freezes of it !
If I disable "HTC home" on the today setup screen, then everything is faster (start menu display ...).
I re-installed Quick-menu and now my Kaiser is working fine.
I will have to replace HTC home by a clone application ...
I haven't had any issues with my Kaiser freezing with the 3.28.405.0 WWE ROM, but then I haven't used ROM that was oficially released by HTC. Instead I've been using the one that was leaked out a couple of days before the official release.
Is it possible that the official ROM image is corrupted in some way? I've noticed this post over in the Kaiser ROM Development forum, which was posted today:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2234850&postcount=356

Called HTC today.
I'm not the only one having trouble with 6.1. They said in the next two days there will be a "new" version available.
The file we could download now is corrupt and they will upload a non corrupt version. Supposedly the file was corrupt by uploading to ftp server
I think they will release a patched version.

I've installed the official (English) rom I got from someone in the UK (there is none for TYTN II from Hong Kong being used in the USA as of yet ) and loved the idea that all I had to do is just install ( No hard SPL ) and everything seems fine. I have a lot of apps. installed and everything is fine.
I upgraded to the leaked ROM and have had nothing but Freezing problems !!
I turned off HTC home and this seemed to do the job...for about 12 hours and then wouldnt you know it, its slow again.
I did a hard reset and turned everything off, used Kaiser tweaks to change the cache options and its still not right.
I feel badly let down by this product. I upgraded from a blackberry 8800 which ran like a dream, no problems. I've always been alittle sceptical about Windows Mobile Products. I've owned many PDAs in the past and have always felt that they were always compromised. My Dell Axim X51v was a good PDA but too bulky to carry around. I've always been someone who wasnt bothered by Windows Mobile Devices because of their windows hang ups. Seems I was proved right, though I know this isnt necessarily a Windows thing, more likely a HTC thing....it still doesnt help !
I needed a product that offered, office apps, with internet and the ability to FTP easily at high speeds either over WiFi or 3g. The Vario III had the lot including imense flexability which made me give up my Blackberry (which was a big thing, trust me as I adored my blackberry,,,it was just alittle limited).
After having purchased HTC's almost flagship model I've feel totally let down, they knowingly shipped a product that was flawed and then released a dodgy fix that affectively made the device worse (for some of us!). Freezing all the time. When it wasnt freezing it was a pleasure to use...but seriously, i'm 5 weeks into using it and I'm absolutely pee'd off. I seem to be constantly looking for fixes all the time !! my wife thinks I've become bloody addicted to it, she wont listen when i tell her I'm trying to fix it. it always seems to be in my hand !! (the kaiser that is )
That blackberry of mine is going to be taken out of the box and this paper weight will be used as just that.
gutted man

You need to remove the HardSPL application from your Kaiser in order to stop the freezes ... Take a look at this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394783
It works ... Guaranteed !
Yes, the HardSPL is your problem, not HTC.
I tried the official htc e-club 6.1 and had lots of freezing issues. It would just freez for 20 seconds or so then start working again. Drove me crazy. I off-loaded it and re-loaded dutty's 6.1 hybrid and am very happy with it. Very stable, no more freezes either. I also reloaded mobile shell and found it to work much better than with the old 6.0. The memory issues, leaks etc. I had with shell on 6.0 seem to have become almost non-existant with this rom. And did I say batt life is heaven . I'm stickin' with what works for now.
I have the problem that Activesync is automatically turned on when I start the phone and it makes alot of problems but when I turn it off it usually solves it - anyone know how to fix this?

I have the e-club 6.1 and am experiencing the same freezes. Really annoying. I think there is a pattern that when I turn off the phone, the freezes go away.

I had a similar issue where Activesync would start running on my phone every so many minutes, when looking in the task manager it would be running. I fixed that by running task manager v2.8 from Fdcsoft you can download it from here http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm with that go to notification and disable replog.exe (AppRunAfterTimeChange). This does not affect active sync working when connecting to a pc or with push email.
